Question

find the value of \\(x\\) in the triangle shown below.

\\(x = \boxed{\phantom{123}}^{\circ}\\)

show calculator

Explanation:

Identify the triangle type

$$ \text{Side lengths: } a = 6, \quad b = 6, \quad c = 5.8 $$
$$ \text{Since two sides are equal } (6 = 6)\text{, the triangle is isosceles.} $$

Apply the Isosceles Triangle Theorem

$$ \text{The angles opposite to the equal sides of length } 6 \text{ must be equal.} $$
$$ \text{Angle opposite to side of length } 6 \text{ is } 58^\circ. $$
$$ \text{Angle opposite to the other side of length } 6 \text{ is } x^\circ. $$
$$ x = 58 $$

Answer:

Find the value of \(x\) in the triangle shown below.

\(x =\) <blank>58</blank>\(^\circ\)
